Our mission & Vision
At The Azalea Project (TAP,) we know that students struggle to find joy and value inside the classroom, resulting in a lack of engagement and retention of information. We are nurturing the next generation of learners by bridging the gap between traditional education and real life by enriching a safe space for school-aged students to not only receive homework help, but also see themselves and find meaning in what they learn.

Passionate Tutors

Comfortable Learning Environment
Learning is easier when you have an excellent teacher. That's why our tutors are experts in their fields. Our tutors are passionate about the work that we do and the students with whom we work. We bring this enthusiasm into their sessions in a way that encourages students to work hard towards academic growth and understanding.

Comfortable Learning Environment
We offer sessions in the home where the student feels most comfortable as to eliminate one of the barriers to learning, as well as online tutoring. Along with the content, we focus on other aspects of education that are often overlooked. We put an emphasis on student voice and meeting our students where they are, individually. This has been proven to have a positive impact on learning.
Exciting Enrichment

Exciting Enrichment
Built into our sessions are opportunities for students to shine and showcase the things that interest them. We encourage our students to share their art, theatre, writing, etc. -- or better, we encourage them to share what makes them who they are.
As we transition into our center, we'll offer a wide variety of enrichment activities, ranging from music lessons, team sports, to art classes. We have options that cater to every student's interests. Keep an eye out for more info!
